I have been selling powerups on flurry since basicly around day 3 or 4 of the game. back when everyone had to be crafted by hand I used to charge more. Nowadays I only sell em by the crate. the general price on my server seems to be 2k (my price) a crate to around 4k a crate for anything about 30%/15% ish..and up.. sometimes you see em priced more on the bazaars since the cap but the cap used to define the max price of crates of powerups. which was 3k. (seems to be most popular pricing)


This is a Reprint of Keh's guide to weapon powerups. which can be found here

http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=Ahazi&message.id=2397&highlight=powerup+list+muzzle+melee+barrel+grip+calibrated+powered+barbing#M2397

this is the guide i've been using forever to make my powerups of which i've been selling almost since Week 1 of the game.

I've reprinted it so i can add a couple of things to it that were origanaly left out.
(lighning and refining melee and of recoil grip added)

Power-Ups at Temporary modifications to weapons. They can be made by any artisan (trust me the artisans know).

I thought I'd make this list up to help some of you sort through what powerup does what without having to check details on every one

I know alot of those on the bazaar are junk (+2% and such), but powerups can go as high as a +30% bonus to primary stat and +15% to the secondary stat.

Secondary stat mod is half of the Primary.
(On rare occasions a 3 stat mod powerup is created but not very often)

+25% damage or speed reduction can be pretty significant!

As far as I know, they all have 100 uses.

NOTE: Some mods have +% penalties. This is not a bad thing! It's a bonus that reduces the penalty by +%. Example: +20% Special Move Action Cost REDUCES the cost by 20%

I sell them for approx 3k per crate, but I guess it depends on the server you are playing. In the old/new system -prior the patch which has been reverted now- I sell these:


Range


1st Max Damage or Min Damageor Speed,and 2ndRange Mod.


Rreally rare is 1st Max Damage and 2nd Min Damage. When I have this combo it seems the 1st cannot pass the30%.



Melee


1st Point Blank, 2nd Speed or Health or Mind.

How many powerups in a crate?

how do you make crates of powerups?

How about pricing for singles?

I assume you were experimenting yesterday and had amazing successes. I am curious did you get amazing successes with really low quality resources ? What kind of resources did you use (oq) ?


Thanks,

I got the same 100% experimentation from 1000OQ mineral and 992 OQ chemical. Needed to get at least one amazing success and the remainder great sucesses.


As for pricing I sell crates on Tarquinas for 2250 credits each.
